Madonna Conical Bra: $51,920

This legendary brassiere with conical cups, designed by Jean Paul Gaultier, fetched a world-record $51,920 in London on Nov. 29, 2012—more than double the previous record for a Madonna outfit, set at Christie's in 1999.

The Material Girl wore the green silk and beaded corset on her Blond Ambition tour in 1990. The buyer, a private collector from the U.K., paid more than double the presale estimate.
